THE FARMER.
BY H. C pppGE.

Once on a tune he used to plough And rise ai dawn to milk the cough And drive with merry song an,l laugh, To pasture Brindle and her caugh. Taeu for the pigs he'd dll the trough And for the mA rket would he ough, Sometimes his mare would bruise her hough Against a fence post or rough And there he switched her with bough To teach her better any hough; He planted wheat to make the dough. Which, in a drought. was hard grough In winter, when his work was through. \ little sporting he would dough- He'd wander with his gun and shough And aim at crow he couldn't knough. Sometimes he'd hunt along the ciough For birds that do not live there nough, And shoot q sea gull or a clough Which he with joy would proudly stough. From swamplaud. wateresi by a lough. He'd make good pasture for his stough By laying here and there a sough, While perspira ton wet his brcugh Sometimes a snake that shed it's slough Would scare him so he Il run and pough Till stuck knee deep within A slough, He'd yell until he raised rough. But nough work makes the farmer cough And careless hough much people scough, He lives on baarters rough and tough Whough yough theigh dough not eat enough
